Geared Around a
           New Era
                 of Flight		 Why has the PurePower PW1000G engine been selected to power the vast majority of next-generation, medium-range jets? Because only Pratt & Whitney’s geared turbofan engine can deliver game-changing improvements in fuel burn—years ahead of the competition—with noise and maintainability advantages unmatched by conventional engines. It’s also the only engine on the market with mature flight-proven technology.

What's in a Name?
How we name our engines.

The numbering scheme for each PW1000G engine model follows the same historical Pratt & Whitney pattern; the first number represents the generation - in this case, 1 or 1,000. The second number denotes the customer: 1 for Airbus, 2 for Mitsubishi, 4 for Irkut, and 5 for Bombardier. The last two numbers indicate the thrust class: 24 for 24,000 pounds of thrust, and so forth. And finally, the "G" stands for a geared turbofan engine. Below, the full PW1000G engine product table is listed in order of thrust.
